    OMG - It's Street Legal

    From the 50's and 60's this Daimler Ferret military vehicle can go 55 MPH in both forward or reverse. Not too bad to parallel park, and looks perfect for driving in downtown Miami. I like it.

          DThat would be fun to park accross the steet from the neighborhood Drug/gang house, that is down the street. Maybe the would get the message that we are serious about getting rid of them.

            55 MPH in forward AND reverse? Are you sure it's not a French military vehicle?

                  I have been looking for a replacement for my Bronco, I think that is just the thing. Wonder if Reece makes a hitch for it?

                      If it were French, it would only have "R" and "S" gears... (Retreat and Surrender)

                          Wow. I want one. I've always wanted to be able to fill out the "Make/Model" sections of my parking permit application with brands like Caterpillar, John Deere, or Tonka -- but I have to say that M1 Abrams, or this little guy would be a lot more impressive.

                              "a full size spare". Ok. You get the award. That's funny.
